Endovascular treatment of a post-traumatic posterior tibial artery pseudoaneurysm: A case report

Özet

Post-traumatic pseudoaneurysms of the posterior tibial artery are uncommon and are very rarely seen due to firearm injuries. Thesepseudoaneurysms are seldomly located in the middle one-third of the posterior tibial artery. In recent years, in the management strategyof post-traumatic pseudoaneurysms, endovascular repair, as being an anatomical and less invasive modality, has increasingly gained moreattention, compared to open repair. Herein, we present a 22-year-old male case of a delayed symptomatic post-firearm injury pseudoaneurysmof the posterior tibial artery treated with an endovascular stent graft in the light of literature data.
